Worst Job Screening Ever

Most of us work with somebody who seems to have gotten a job without having an interview.  The person who must have a job because they're related to the boss, slept with the president, or was offered a job as part of a settlement.  Usually these employees are relative unknowns.  This is what makes Tony Kornheiser's presence on Monday Night Football so mind-boggling.  He seriously almost makes me want to miss MNF.  Nobody likes him.  Everybody knew they didn't like him.  He's had a radio show since 1992, and has been part of the most annoying show on ESPN (Pardon the Interruption) since 2001.  That's effectively a five year television interview before he joined MNF in 2006.  There has to be an explanation.  Admittedly, he gained fame as a writer/journalist, but being a successful writer does not qualify you to sneak your way into living rooms across America every Monday night.  It makes me nostalgic for the days of Al, Dan and Frank.
